Texas Standard for June 21, 2016
A drug to stop opioid overdoses requires a doctor’s approval. Now there’s one prescription for all of Texas. We’ll meet the doctor who wrote it. Also: Abortion laws in Texas mean doctors in decline, and changes in how new ones are being trained. We’ll hear what rising OB-GYN’s are learning about instead. Plus: Mars needs farmers. Ready to suit up? NASA launches a new recruitment campaign with retro posters, but they’re quite serious. And: With the vote on the Brexit just hours away, could a Texit be that far off? A reality check and much more, today on the Texas Standard.
